In older releases, the init script checked for TLS-related settings in
slapd.conf and if it found some, forcibly added 'ldaps:///' to the list
of values passed to slapd as arguments for its '-h' flag.

It looks like it doesn't do that any more.  Rather, it expects that
you'll set SLAPD_LDAPS to "yes" in /etc/sysconfig/ldap.  I'm only
guessing as to why, but it looks like one of the benefits of changing
the way that the init script works is that you can now disable listening
for non-SSL connections without editing the init script.

HTH,
